Gm Bb I had a job, I had a girl F I had something going mister in this world Gm Bb I got laid off down at the lumber yard F Our love went bad, times got hard Eb F Now I work down at the carwash Gm Where all it ever does is rain Eb F Gm Eb F Don't you feel like you're a rider on a downbound train Gm Bb She just said "Joe I gotta go F We had it once we ain't got it any more" Gm Bb She packed her bags left me behind F She bought a ticket on the Central Line Eb F Nights as I sleep, I hear that whistle whining Gm I feel her kiss in the misty rain Eb F Gm Eb F And I feel like I'm a rider on a downbound train | Eb7 | F | F | Gm | Eb | F | Gm | F | Gm Bb Last night I heard your voice F You were crying you were so alone Gm Bb You said your love had never died F You were waiting for me at home Gm Bb Put on my jacket, I ran through the woods F I ran till I thought my chest would explode Gm Bb There in the clearing, beyond the highway F In the moonlight, our wedding house shone Gm Bb I rushed through the yard, I burst through the front door F My head pounding hard, up the stairs I climbed Gm Bb The room was dark, our bed was empty F Then I heard that long whistle whine Eb Bb And I dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried Eb F Now I swing a sledge hammer on a railroad gang Gm Knocking down them cross ties, working in the rain Eb F Gm Eb F Now don't it feel like you're a rider on a downbound train Have Fun!!
